You can download a final checklist below.
The rookie autographs will feature players in their new NFL uniforms with Black (# to 25), Pulsar (15), Gold (10), Red (5) and SuperFractors (1/1) at the top of the chase list. A Hot Box Refractor will be packed in each case.
Topps is expanding the SuperFractor concept, putting more of the 1/1 cards throughout the product.
